Researchers can text mine UCB-subscribed journals and books published by Elsevier on the ScienceDirect full-text platform. Sign up for a developer account to use the Elsevier APIs for non-commercial purposes, and make sure to query the API from UC Berkeley IPs to ensure full access. You can also use the APIs to access citation data and abstracts from scholarly journals indexed by Scopus. For more information, see their Text Mining documentation.
